Howdy, everyone! My friend is raising money to set up a Little Free Library at a flower farm in the Lehigh Valley. Once it's purchased and decorated, they'll be stocking it with books from the Doylestown Bookshop. If you could donate and/or share, that'd be rad!

I was going to get out of bed, but Ruby noticed, so now I have to lay back down and pretend I'm sleeping so that she'll go back to sleep and not follow me downstairs and stare at me pathetically while I eat breakfast

Marking my calendar for the last two #SDvsLAD series of the season because this is the most dramatic baseball in existence

does "validity" actually translate to anything like "trans people are still valid even without access to hrt" what does that mean what is validity. can i utilize validity to gain some kind of claim to a concrete aspect of life. what do i gain or lose from validity being there or revoked

If I was the sun, I’m not coming back out at 7:50. Nah, I clocked out early. I’m done for the day.

Howdy, friends! Do me two favors, if you can: 1) Look through the quotes and comments and give to someone or multiple someones 2) Help me find a full-time job, maybe?

Wouldn't it be cool to get @notphillies.bsky.social to a thousand followers before the All-Star Break? I mean, it'd be cooler if @phillies.com started crossposting, but still. It'd be cool to get notphillies to 1K before the ASG. #RingTheBell

man, I work a job that doesn't give us holidays off except for like,, Christmas, but they still won't hire anybody for full-time unless you're a manager. maybe create some more full-time jobs, Donny!

Similar to my post about "liberation means even for that annoying guy you hate" - weird art includes art you personally don't get, don't like, wouldn't spend money on, find unsettling. Games you wouldn't play. Books you wouldn't read. Decommercialise your preconceptions of what art deserves to exist

Sitting here at 11:30am, getting ready for work, half awake, thinking about this one time my boss said she hates scheduling me for morning shifts because I never look awake when I come in

Threatening to go Galt in a city of eight million people when your contribution to society is owning nine grocery stores is a good bit, I'm not gonna lie

THIS IS HUGE! An HIV PrEP drug in the form of a twice-yearly subcutaneous injection has JUST been APPROVED by the FDA. Lenacapavir was 99.9% EFFECTIVE at PREVENTING HIV in clinical trials. Let’s talk about that! 🧪🧵⬇️

happy pride month

Has Drake ever won? Like, at anything?

Tonight's thought spiral, given recent events: Do even I bother legally changing my name at this point? I'll have to go get fingerprinted at the county prison to apply and then I'll have to get a court date to appear in front of a judge for approval which is all just... so much work, and for what?

Anyway, look at this dog

To my trans friends, I am deeply sorry and angry about the ever increasing dehumanization, ignorance, and hate every day; today’s ruling was gut wrenching. I’m here to listen I made a donation to the Trevor Project — they are *quadrupling* donations right now. Cis people, join me if you are able

Against my better judgement... does anyone have a screenshot of what everyone elwas quote dunking from Chuck before it got deleted?

today I am thinking a lot about the 2016 bathroom ban and the subsequent uproar and how completely insane it feels to be here, 9 years later. and I think what you have to take away from that is so much responsibility lies with right-wing media, sure - but also with The Atlantic, with the NYTimes,

If everything is a diversion than nothing it is, it is an all out assault on everything. You can't cede ground on anything because the fight to win back human dignity is going to be so uphill. You need to hammer home that this is evil on all fronts, trans rights are as important as everything else.

The NYT's anti-trans fear mongering was cited in a Supreme Court briefing that stripped away the rights of trans kids. They need to be fully blacklisted by queer people and their allies. Don't work for them. Don't use them for book press. Don't speak with them for stories. They made their bed.

begging for someone to explain how ripping access to a certain kind of healthcare away for children in an entire state is "an attempt to divert attention" from ripping healthcare away from people. brother they're the same thing!
